Summary

The Denver Broncos navigated the 2026 NFL Draft without a first-round pick, and the DNVR Draft crew is breaking down how George Paton and Sean Payton’s strategy compares to the rest of the AFC. In this episode, we evaluate Denver’s rookie haul against other AFC heavyweights like Buffalo, Cincinnati, and Jacksonville who were also sidelined during round one. We unpack the blockbuster trades that reshaped the Broncos' draft capital, detailing how this front office consistently finds future starters on day two and beyond. Our crew looks back at legendary team history, analyzing how previous drafts in 1995 and 2012 proved you can build a championship core without day-one picks. Join Jake Schwanitz, Henry Chisholm and Andre Simone all things on the Denver Broncos, college football and the NFL Draft.
